The earth takes 24 hours to complete one complete rotation about its axis. That is why there are 24 hours in a day instead of 36 or any other number of hours. If you go to some other planet, then this duration will vary.
There are 24 hours in a day (approximately). Thus a half life of 36 hours is equal to 36/24 = 1.5 days.
If a day had 36 hours instead of 24, each time zone would cover 30 degrees of longitude instead of the current 15 degrees. This is because the Earth rotates 360 degrees in 24 hours, so with 36 hours in a day, each hour of difference would correspond to 30 degrees of longitude.
24 hours = 1 day 6 days = 24 x 6 = 144 Answer: 6 days 1 hour 36 minutes so less than a week by 22 hours 24 minutes
There would still be 360o. But instead of the earth rotating 15o every hour it would only rotate 10o every hour.
There are 24 hours in a day, so one and a half days would be 36 hours. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, you would multiply 36 hours by 60 minutes to get a total of 2,160 minutes in one and a half days.
1 and and a half days
1/24 = 1.65/xcross-multiplyx = 39.639 hours 36 minutes
36*24*60 = 51840 minutes
In one and a half day, there are 2,160 minutes in a day because there are 60 minutes in a hour, and there are 24 hours in a day and half of 24 hours (half a day) is 12, so 24+12=36, and 36(hours in 1 1/2 days ) times 60 minutes (total minutes per hour) equals 2,160 minutes in one and a half days. Step 1: 24x1/2=12 Step 2: 24+12=36 Step 3: 36x60=2,160 Your answer: There are 2,160 minutes in one and a half days.
That would be...wait. Why don't you figure it out. There are 24 hours in a day. So take 24 from 36. You SHOULD get 12, which is half a day. So to answer your question, 36 is 1.5 days (1 and a half days)
Since 24 hrs are in a day, 868/24 = 36.166666...days, or 36 days 4 hours
1.5 x 24 = 36 hours
